A huge broad funnel-shaped hopper-like device that's designed to fit down over-top of a basketball hoop, and to catch virtually all the shots so that they'll go through the hoop.
A standard hoop-skirt is made from heavy canvas or other thick easily-visible material, and is just a novelty/gag item that's intended to merely cause observers to snicker and roll their eyes as they watch the players score a hoop almost every time (similar to when a backyard jokester uses lengths of stove-pipe for guiding the ball when playing croquet). "Specialty" or "stealth" models of hoop-skirt are available, too, though --- they are made from ultra-transparent and non-reflective material in order to be virtually undetectable, and can be used to help "level the playing field" during actual team-competition games; they allow the less-capable/practiced side to increase their chances of beating --- or at least scoring a lot closer to --- their better-skilled opponents.

A famous opera tenor who got shipwrecked on a deserted island and lived to "sing his song" about it.
It's amazing dat Enrico Crusoe maintained his awesome voice after all dat he went through to survive those many years on a tiny tropical atoll.

Having sympathetic/helpful feelings relating to ejaculation, such as a lady who feels sorry for a horny stud who badly needs to "relieve da pressure", or an obliging dude who wants to help out a sexually-lonesome lady.
Being cumpassionate is all well and good, but one should proceed with caution --- frequent intercourse can lead to unexpected pregnancies, STDs, and other less-than-desirable consequences.

Refers to a foreigner “transplant” who takes the festive cheer out of Christmas due to his differing and/or grumpy views about the holiday and its origins.
I am sure that there have been plenty of immigrinches ever since the time when Christmas was first celebrated, but the most famous example was probably Ebeneezer Scrooge... the book implies that he was a "native" of London, but one would seriously question how he could have felt so antagonistic towards Christmas if he had truly been exposed to the infectious joy and generosity that was typically displayed in London every year during that period... he must actually have been "from away", as we say here in Maine.
